Pros

The benefits are good. Pay is reasonable. Project opportunities can help new employees to gain some good experience.. Many employees have good skills and are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Upper management needs a major overhaul. Micro-management and layoffs are commonplace. Mid-level managers are afraid to think and act for themselves. Real leadership is largely unknown. Entrepreneurship is discouraged. Trust is nearly non-existent. Employee motivation is largely through fear.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
